title: [Enlarged iliopsoas bursa. Possible significance and place of computed tomography and sonography].
abstract: A 48-year-old man was admitted to hospital with symptoms of a deep venous thrombosis of the iliac vein. Ultrasound and computed tomography allowed the uncommon diagnosis of an enlarged bursa of the iliopsoas muscle with secondary compression of the iliac vein. Histological work-up after bursectomy confirmed this diagnosis.
